  well, it still doesn't make it less ugly.
  
  I suppose this is a NewP for your Die Marriage set?
  You must be close, if not past, half-way with R5 and tougher Die Marriages by now? No?

  That may be a genuine clip, the obverse looks promising, but there is so much wear and damage that I don't know if you can really tel for sure. Either way the clip is of secondary concern if it is an R-6 die marriage. You're getting really good at this cherrypicking thing.

  I don't know, I just happened on to it and with a $15 Buy it Now, figured I couldn't get hurt too bad.
